PollerApp Service

This chapter describes the DCNM web services' API methods for the PollerApp service.

Information About PollerApp Service

The PollerApp service allows you to obtain syslog poller information. The syslog poller component is used to synchronize with the device automatically. The DCNM server creates a syslog poller for each managed device. Each syslog poller periodically retrieves system and accounting logs from a device. DCNM uses the information retrieved by poller processes to update its configuration and status information for polled devices.
